As usual the intro alone was enough to make me depressed
The absolute best way to *kill your own growth* is by comparing it to the growth of others. You are where *you* are, not where *they* are. Want to get better? Stop comparing yourself to others you perceive as better than you. It's just logic friends. ^-^
I never ever understand guitar players who feel DEFEATED AND DEMOTIVATED by exceptional displays of skill on the instrument they play. Why does it not instead inspire you to practice? You guys aren't seeing this the right way.
Lmao chill guys, you’re taking things a little too seriously don’t you think?
I can't speak for others here I've never met, but my sole intention is to inspire other players to look at it in a logical manner because I think they do want to improve. I was and am as chill as one could be btw: it's late, I'm stoned (that makes me _chatty_ lols), happy, and enjoying the comments. But I'm also a guitar teacher and seen it in person for decades that this _joke_ is a way of expressing real feelings of self doubt, as many jokes are, and that's natural. ^-^
Edit: Just to make it doubly clear. I'm personally not saying anyone is depressed or taking it too far (I wouldn't know and I try not to assume things). But we all do this type of _joke_ about different things. If you think about it, jokes really are just a way for us to deal with our clumsiness in some area or another. Isn't it easier to laugh when we stumble?
this got me inspired to learn this lick and practice!
That intro is just too fast for me to comprehend, yet it is so tasteful and melodic. A true sound to the ears
2:30 "Don't do what I did there"... Yeah, don't worry, there's not much risk we can 😂
Thanks for reminding me that after 16 years of playing and practice I'm still completely trash.
How much of that practice time did you spend working at the hard stuff, as opposed to just enjoying the stuff that you can play already?
Put 15-20 solid, uninterrupted minutes a day into working on the shit that seems too difficult for you right now. Record it. Come back to it in a month, and if you’ve kept up with it, i promise you will notice a serious positive difference
@@heylookitsn0ah I can pretty much do all the hard stuff but this guy takes it to a whole other level like insanity level. God Tier.
@@heylookitsn0ah I'm so guilty of jamming instead of practicing.. I'll make sure I commit to it for a month, 1 hour of uninterrupted practice daily for a month and I might even post it.. thanks for the reminder!
@@neotoxicenviful that's why you aren't God teir though, don't be content with your current level, keep grinding bro!
The bit about breathing and relaxing is a game changer for me thanks !
SICK! I suddenly feel so much superior to everyone else though knowing I have a similar Charvel, tho.
I bet you have an old cheap Charvel or a copy lol

Instructions unclear, ended up playing Layla.
I love these licks! Please, never stop doing lessons Rick, you are truly a master.
Can you help the global economy get back up? Because your economy seems to be doing "extreeeemely" well.
That is because he goes about things logically and sustainably. Whereas most of our politicians, and often their constituents go about things based on greed, a result of denying they're lost in fear. This may serve themselves in the short term, but looking at things in such a narrow minded way is unsustainable and eventually comes back to haunt us all. You can blame the billionaires and those who blindly and illogically support them for our current predicament.
P.S. Not saying you disagree (or agree), I wouldn't know. Just adding my own thoughts. Hope you're doing extreeemely well. ^-^
Buddy! Why not let it motivate you? You can use this feeling you’ve got as a battery to power beating yourself up, or you can use it to kick your own ass and say to yourself “i should be better” and then own it!! Make sure at least 20 minutes of your practice routine is about just working at the stuff that’s difficult for you, and i promise you won’t regret it! Keep shredding, bro!
@@aylbdrmadison1051 I completely agree with you
@@heylookitsn0ah That goes without saying! Ofcourse it motivates me and lets me explore further. I was just making a joke. 😅
@Heylookitsnoah ! : Although I see your comment was well intentioned and I agree with it all 100%, I think it was perhaps slightly misplaced since Soham Bhattacharya never typed anything about comparison, or not feeling adequate. It was just a _tie-in joke_ (if that's even a term, lols), coupled with a compliment. Anyway, "liked" your comment because it's generally sound advice regardless. ^-^
For a guy with no left hand right hand coordination, after 30 years, it's maddening to watch the ease with which you play those runs. Bless you.
I've been playing for multiple decades but I always learn something from watching your videos. Thanks for the lesson!
Great lesson Rick! There are so many nuances on that pattern to learn from. Thank you!
Thanks Rick for making this available for anyone who is trying to improve on their guitar work. This is perfect level difficulty for me, as it is a challenge and I like the way you break it down and teach it!
Can’t wait to see more Rick! Your code are some of the best!
Thanks for the lesson as always Rick. It's nice to see others finding ways to use 3 note per string pentatonic scales. I started using them years ago just to facilitate doubling up a note within the scale too.
Pick like the wind... Oh the memories, it reminds me that awesome "pick like the wind picking patter" uploaded a couple of years ago. You're a beast Rick. Hello from Chile 🇨🇱
Ricks quick but slick licks......classic RG
Amazing as always Rick! Love it!
I really, really struggle to start those economy runs with an upstroke. Definitely something i've identified as a huge problem for me.
You told me years ago during a lesson with yourself that tension is the biggest adversary of speed. Few sentences have stuck with me more than that mate. Thanks for the inspiration as always.
Yea, for musicians pain is the opposite of gain.

Hello, do you know the subdivision of this lick? I hear it in sextuplets but it’s a little off when i play it
@@patereekoelectrik842 What xD.That's such bad advice,guitar is pretty hard is it not worth doing? :)
My favorite guitar hero on UA-cam.
Rick! You’re pummeling us with videos! It AWESOME!!! Thank you!
Everyone I show you to Rick is blown away by your playing. It's as if your hand doesn't move at all, great economy of movement!
That's a wicked Charvel that you're sporting there, Mr. Rick. Shred on!
god!! you're the best guitarist on youtube for sure
Mind boggling. Just spectacular. Thank you.
I love you man. So real...and so good
As many lessons as possible using the diminished lines are very helpful.! Thanks Rick. Helps my Gypsy lines.
Incredible playing, Rick. 16 years into my guitar journey, I'm finally getting around to really building my alternate picking chops. I'll start working on this economy picking stuff in another 16 years.. Your videos are constant inspiration!
The sooner you work on economy picking, the more naturally it will come to you. And you've worked on alternate picking, so if you've worked on sweep picking then you already are using both of the components of economy picking. It's just combining them economically after that.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 Totally agree. I actually do use economy picking now and then, but it's not something that I want to focus on right now. I've always neglected my alternate picking and used hybrid picking, economy, legato, etc. to accomplish my stuff. Neeeed to finally build some alternate chops. Just a bucket list thing, lol
Thank you very much Rick!! Amazing lick as always!!
"The speed is a bi- product of the control".
I love those words of wisdom.

@@MrSatch12 Zakk Wylde said that in an interview years ago
Just watching Mr. Graham so Effortlessly Shredding it's just Mind Blowing. 2 out of 10 talented Guitarist can actually do what he does. 😎
As a teacher myself you blow me away Rick. Thank you. The part about breathing never crossed my mind so I might have to pass on your knowledge to one of my band mates. \m/
Hello! As you are a teacher, maybe you can help me with the subdivision of this exercise? I’m hearing it in sextuplets, but I’m not sure
Awesome man! I transcribed this in about ~20 minutes- 20 minutes well spent, if I do say so myself! Thanks, Rick!!!
Superb lesson as always. I just bought the "Killer Shred Technique" and "5 Arpeggio Studies" lessons and I'm so into it, that's some great educational content!
Nice on Rick! I think that's just what I need right now!!!
BRAVO! AMAIZING GUITAR PLAYER!!!! congratulations thanks for videos
Bruh...soooo clean. Very nice!
Awesome lick! Also nice inner game technique tips
Rick keeps putting out exercises I’ve always looked for. I’ll check back in a year when I get this one down 😂
Rick your playing is unbelievable
Awesome man! Love it! I need to work on the diminished chromatisism... but I'm all over it man! Thanks!!!
Much respect brother, you are unbelievable 🙉🖤
Jeez man, that intro lick.. And I thought I was having a good day in my latest jam video
I've been put back in place :')
This is like if frank gambale was able to share a new lick every now and then, back in the days. How cool is this? Thx rick.
The most clean, fast and tasty guitarist of our time.
Rick thank you so much for this lesson. I asked for some advice on tension a few weeks ago on your IG and this is just truly amazing. I've been struggling with this for the last couple of months. I have been getting extremely tense when I play to the point of feeling like I'm going backwards as a player. Then good ol anxiety creeps in and it turns into a s@#t show. I will practice this! Thanks again
Eddi
If you aren't doing it already, you need to stretch before and after, and warm up before (cooling down after is good too).
Great lesson!! However, I wish you elaborate more on the guitar settings, like the effects (sounds like a LOT of sustain), and a very low action. Moreover, on your muting technique, which is fundamental
Well hell.....that was just phenomenal.
You should call it "Jupiter WInd" (which can get up to 385mph)
Jesus dude. That’s amazing.
When I listen to you play these stuffs and talk about relaxing and breathing I Just know you really enjoy what you do and you're doing extremely well.that little smile of confidence and self-satisfaction when we can play that smooth and fast🤩 thanks for letting us know we're doing something amazing and we can enjoy doing it so much🤘
Amazing!!!
Fantastic 🔥🎸
thanks a lot rick
Lovely !!!
Thanks for sharing - so I've challenged myself to learn this lick even if I know that I'll fail 😀
nice work buddy. I'm working hard to play like u :3
Rick could you do a quick video talking about sitting in the classical position. You spoke about tension and I feel like the angle of the guitar away from the body and neck height play a big role in tension free playing but no one ever talking about it apart from using a foot stool. I find if I angle the guitar away it’s comfortable for the picking hand but then the guitar feels to faraway for the fretting hand. Would be good for some insight into some of these variables
He does this with such ease and effortless flow it is insane! I want to be able to pick like this so badly but no matter how hard i practice i can't seem to get there.
Dude how long did you try? Not having a go at you just saying after about a day I had the pattern. After a week I had the pattern daily quick but it took a month of constantly trying to get it so fast people said woah dude when they heard me practice it.
It’s just time dude. Play it over a thousand times and you’ll master it
Omg it's so clean! How??
I know you probably knock out 5 or 6 videos like this a day yet it takes me a week to practice each run you share until I can even play it to the point that it's recognizable as you play them 😂
Although, I was able to get the "delay with no delay" lick pretty quickly 🍻😁
Gotta be the best all-round guitarist around, at least my favourite skillster!
Out of this world 😱😱😱
Tq for give the tips
Love your playing Rick! Welcome back mate, Crack On!! make a CD of your songs, you don't get the recognition you deserve, almost a cult guitarist following, T Shirts? BTW, Hope you are doing Exxxtreemly Well,,
subbed in the first 10 secs lol legend
Not in this lifetime I'm not, but lovely to watch.
Well god damn that was amazing
Hey Rick, I've been working on this lick. It's a matter of just getting it up to speed. Economy picking has never been something I've worked on much, definitely good to have in the inventory
Hello, can you help me with the subdivision of this lick? I think it’s sextuplets, but when I play it doesn’t fit
Inhuman précision and speed 😳😱
Hey man. Just subbed you. I'll be watching many, many more videos to come. YT has a lot of great instructors on its platform, but you're now my go-to source-for a variety of reasons. But I also have a challenge to navigate. Long ago, I fractured my fretting hand, causing my ring finger & pinky to become somewhat "fused" together at the wrist joint, which severely limits my 3rd-4th finger independence. I have to cheat a lot (leaving off the pinky, for this reason). Any feedback you have would be great, Rick. Keep up the awesome work!
Perfect
Damn Rick!!!
Master Rick has the smoothest picking mechanics I've seen in 30 years of playing Youd have to be Paul Gilbert to rival the picking 🤘
Rick how do you get your sound, in terms of settings on your fractal or your amplifier? I love it, good job
sick!
I missed you
лучший канал. с лучшими фразами!))
he starts on an up ... easily done d h d d u d ..d h etc. great work rick.
Hey Rick, your economy picking sounds great. The thing I never particularly liked about economy picking was that it sounds 'sloppy' when a lot of guitarists do it - as if it was a sweep. When you economy pick across strings, you still have a lot of definition in your pick sound and if I wasn't looking, I wouldn't be able to tell that it's not alternate picking. Can you please go into the mechanics of your economy picking and how to make it sound good when going across strings in both directions? Thanks!
Thanks man! I have worked on that quite a bit
Hello Rick and Sorry to bother, but i have a really special question to ask you, and if you can answer me, this can be a life changer for me.
I am struck with depression since a few years, and managed this to the point where i can have normal life but at the cost of inspiration and motivation for musical challenges.
I am a former Berklee College student, had a band that was one of the major leaders of metal in Morocco, a lot of technique and a love for the guitar that made me into heavy classical training and a 12 hours a day of guitra ... And i absolutely loved it.
And in just a few days, i lost my mojo. I lost that speed i had, self doubt struck me anytime i tried to play along with tunes i knew on the tips of my fingers. I really forgot how to play every tune i had in stock, and this depressed me even more.
Now i have a career in production, mostly recording simple and entertaining songs but i lost all of my intuitive instincts on the guitar, my riffing and composition skills in instrumental music and i really want so bad to get out of this bad circle because i know i can overcome this : Sometimes it happens to me to play really complex tunes, but the day after that love fades away and i really feel musically empty ...
I want my mojo back and i am willing to fight for it, but i really don't know from where to begin this journey ....
I really thank you for taking the time to read this, god bless you as you always had my support brother.
I’m sort of getting it it’s definitely not something you get in one sitting got to work the kinks out good video
To achieve this top level of ACCURACY + speed + relaxation/smooth...do I really have to repeat those exercices a lot of times over and over just slow-moderate? For muscle memory and neuronal efficience, etc. Or repeat a lot of bursts... Im following some Troy Grady and Martin Miller lessons and advices, but the thing is when I do bursts Im still playing with tension and not so accurate... maybe I need more time to get used to? Or is a lot of patience practicing slow and relaxed?
That tone is so fucking good!
I have the exact same guitar!
Charvel dk24 hh matte blue frost amazing guitar
well, this is going to my routine, Rick ;)
Hi Rick, can you tell me which pick you use? Thank you so much 🤗
So I bought all of your lessons on your website (some of them repeatedly 🤦🏽♂️). Often though what I want is the tab for what you are presenting. It would be nice to be able to buy the videos with tabs with some way to find them from the UA-cam video. I mean, let’s face it, I will buy all your other stuff too. 😁
Fantastic lesson, with great playing as usual. Amazing. One question about the guitar: How’s the tuning stability? I’ve read great reviews about this guitar but a few of them point out issues with tuning stability. Thanks
It's an amazing guitar .. has an japanese goto 2point trem and charvel locking tuners ,i'm work for the specialty brands guitars Ensenada Fender pruduction plant,we Made charvel too.
If you listen to this with subtitles on, it actually hears the applause from all those people back at home! About 15 seconds in onwards :p
That or it's an instruction - but I don't think you needs any :p
_It's an instruction,_ I'm dying now, lols.
Gather children, & comfort yourselves by the warmth of this beautiful fire that was once a guitar of mine. 😂
Always brilliant!
Yes, I often pick the wind. Thank you for calling me out 😂
Hey Rick,
Looking at your intonation setup: I see the low E string saddle is far back, and then it moves forward incrementally all the way to the high E. Does that also mean the height of your low E string is highest, and then string height is lower as you move torwards the high E string ? I find that keeping the high E string lower helps with bending so the B string gets out of the way, but seeing your setup I'm also thinking maybe for picking you like to have this "descending string height" setup. Am I right or am I just imagining things ? How is your string height setup ?
nice
Hi Ricky... great fan of yours. Got any tabs for the intro part ?? (The speech) I think I might need that more coz i can't play shit...
Rick have you learnt Non Brewed Condiment by Allan Holdsworth? The main lead pattern sounds cool you should try it!
As always amazing playing. On the down side it's a little quick to pick out some of the notes without tabs idk how people are figuring this out? Can anyone help solve this ?
how you make so many notes palm mute dude?? I can't see! but y love that jaja
